Student Motivation

@inesamak :  My question is how much of the lack of motivation is attirbuted to the existing curriculum?  I find that if an instructor can design courses at any level that engage the students in areas of personal or future interest, then you will find greater motivation and engagement.  If at the developmental level, we are asking students to read material which does not relate to their lives, interests or future studies, how can we expect them to be motivated?  So, I will be quite interested in viewing the curriculum of a developmental course with this schema in mind.
